75,000 live bacteria are present in a culture in a flask. When an antibiotic is added to the culture, the number of live bacteri

N = 75,000*(1/2)^(h/4) . . . . N = number alive; h = hours

3000 = 75000*(1/2)^(h/4) . . . . . substitute given numbers
1/25 = (1/2)^(h/4) . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 75000
log(1/25) = (h/4)*log(1/2) . . . . . . . take the log, then divide by the coefficient of x
h = 4*log(1/25)/log(1/2) ≈ 18.6 . . . . hours

___
Of course log(1/25) = -log(25) = -2log(5), so the expression for h can be written as h = 8log(5)/log(2)

The angle the golfer went off line from the tee when they  drove the ball

is \phi=28.2 \textdegree because the cosine rule has been applied to calculate the angle

From the question we are told that:

Distance of hole from tee d_h=340yards

Distance to the right d_r=230yards

Ball distance from hole d_b=175 yard

Given that the three points form a triangle x,y,z respectively

Where

d_h=xz

d_r=xy

d_b=yz

Using Cosine Rule

yz^2=xy^2+xz^2-2(xy)(xz)cos\phi

Therefore

cos\phi=\frac{yz^2}{xy^2+xz^2-2(xy)(xz)}

cos\phi=\frac{(175)^2}{230^2+340^2-2(230)(340)}

cos\phi=0.88

\phi=28.2 \textdegree

In conclusion the angle the golfer went off line from the tee when they

drove the ball is mathematically deducted and give as

\phi=28.2 \textdegree
